Nars Lip Lacquer Reviews

I LOVE the colors these are on my lips, but I hate how thick this is on my lips. It bothers me because I'm usually the kind of person that doesn't like to feel the makeup weighing me down.

The colors in this line are simply to die for! I love the pigmentation on these lacquers as well. The packaging is super chic; like all NARS products. I do detest the stickiness sometimes when it is windy out but the color selection makes the purchase totally worth it! A little pricey and I do wish it came with a brush but I have tons of mini-brushes at home so not too big of a deal. Definitely want to get some more colors soon!

I waited for months for sephora to get the color 'chelsea girls' back in stock to try what everyone was raving about.
Upside: The color, chelsea girls at least, is flawless and the shine is amazing. It is the perfect low key tan gloss that does not make your lips dissapear like other skin colored shades.
Downsides: It is sticky and can build up in the corners of your lips. It also is not longwear material. I'm not wild about the taste or smell of it either

I have the shade Chelsea Girls and it is gorgeous, makes my lips look fuller, and amazing. It's a very thick (lacquer) but you would expect with the thickness, maybe some lasting power would be put into this? It comes off very fast for me, and I reapply it constantly. My main criticisms are the pot - it would be easier to apply this on the go if it wasn't a pot. The size - it's too small for ...read morewhat you pay, I go through the product way too fast. But when it's on and there it IS one of my favorite shades and favorite lip products, cosmetically.

great lip product! I have babydoll and eros. Baby doll is the perfectly perfect baby pink. And eros is like my lip color only richer and it gives a sexy plumpness to youer lips. It's a bit sticky. You MUST use a lip brush to apply. But, it looks fab! i do really like it!

I'm not usually a fan of heavy lip lacquers but I'm willing to make an exception for this exceptional shade. Like some of their other hit products (Orgasm blush, Laguna Bronzer) Nars Lip Lacquer in Chelsea Girls flatters all my friends (and we all have wildly different coloring). I have very pink lips so this product is thick enough to cancel out what can sometimes overly heighten lip colors...I'm...read more left with the perfect day-to-night neutral.

I am a self confessed Gloss-A-Holic. This is the best gloss I have found yet. It's heavier which I like and wears like a lipstick pigment wise. It's a brilliant lip stain as well and I adore the amount of dewy affect you get after a few hours. It does stain any utensil you are using to eat with but wears incredibly well through the night. Don't wear it if you plan on getting a little close to some...read moreone because they will have the same stain color on their lips as you. I adore this product. It's super rich and velvety on my lips.— 5 years, 7 months ago

i've been wanting to try Chelsea Girls forever, since i heard it was like the holy grail for nude lips. I tried it at my local sephora, did a good application and was immediately dismayed. it's JUST a typical nude lacquer, nothing i haven't tried before. I'm not a big fan of pots, i don't like dipping my fingers inside when i'm on the go (when i then have to wipe my finger and under my nail...) an...read mored being on the go, my lips are not always perfectly moistened and exfoliated. this opaque color will only highlight every dryness. the color also doesn't self-level, so it looks perfect around the outer edges of your lips , but in the inside where your lips are moist, it won't stick. you'd have to do a fair amount of blending and layering to get it looking right.
So perhaps if i was a little more high maintenance and exfoliated and used a lip brush and lip base, it would be good. not so sure why everyone loves it so much, perhaps because cult items have a placebo effect on us?! (*p.s. even as a nude lip lover, this color would be hard to pull off, it washes out yellow based skin)
perhaps i'll try it again in other colors....but the formula and packaging is still a no for me.— 5 years, 10 months ago
